Invertibility criterion of composition of two multiary quasigroups

Fedir M. Sokhatsky, Iryna V. Fryz (2012)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We study invertibility of operations that are composition of two operations of arbitrary arities. We find the criterion for quasigroups and specifications for T -quasigroups. For this purpose we introduce notions of perpendicularity of operations and hypercubes. They differ from the previously introduced notions of orthogonality of operations and hypercubes [Belyavskaya G., Mullen G.L.: Orthogonal hypercubes and n -ary operations, Quasigroups Related Systems 13 (2005), no. 1, 73–86]. We establish...

Isonemality and mononemality of woven fabrics

Bohdan Zelinka (1983)

Aplikace matematiky

The paper studies the diagrams of woven fabrics consisting of white and black squares as geometrical objects and described their symmetries. The concepts of isonemality and mononemality due to B. Grünbaum and G. C. Shephard are used. A conjecture of these authors is proved in a particular case.

Kikkawa loops and homogeneous loops

Michihiko Kikkawa (2004)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In H. Kiechle's publication ``Theory of K-loops'' [3], the name Kikkawa loops is given to symmetric loops introduced by the author in 1973. This concept started from an analogical imagination of sum of vectors in Euclidean space brought up on a sphere. In 1975, this concept was extended by him to the more general concept of homogeneous loops, and it led us to a non-associative generalization of the theory of Lie groups. In this article, the backstage of finding these concepts will be disclosed from...
